Search Results for "kernel module"

The kernel is the part of the operating system that facilitates interactions between hardware and software components. On most systems, it is loaded on startup after the bootloader and handles I/O requests as well as peripherals like keyboards, monitors, network adapters, and speakers. The Linux kernel is the open-source, monolithic, and, Unix-like operating system kernel that is used in the Linux distributions, various embedded systems such as routers, and as well as in all Android-based...

Baru gathers the information from /sys and /proc filesystems (filled by the kernel). Except for audio and network modules that use C libraries. There is no memory leak over time. All modules are threaded. Thanks to this design (as well as Rust and C), baru is lightweight and efficient. It can run at a high refresh rate with a minimal processor footprint. The audio module communicates with the PipeWire/PulseAudio server through client API to retrieve its data.

talus is an endpoint detection & response agent for Linux, written in Rust. Ransomware on Linux is usually detected when the backup job starts encrypting the backups. Talus watches file operations at the kernel level and reacts in seconds — not after the fact. - eBPF tracepoints: execve / openat / unlink / mkdir — no kernel module, no LSM patching - per-PID scoring with a 1-second sliding window over file-operation rates - automated response: SIGKILL the offending process the moment the threshold breaks - per-CPU perf buffers, zero-copy handoff: ~280k events/s at ~7.6% CPU - optional neural engine (MeMLP) trained online from heuristic verdicts - self-sandboxing agent: CAP_BPF|CAP_PERFMON|CAP_NET_ADMIN, seccomp + Landlock - TUI with live syscall stream, per-PID scores and verdicts Install: pip install talus-process-monitor && talus-monitor install License: MIT — free for commercial use.
